Incight offers scholarship for 2012-2013

Incight offers a scholarship for any student with a documented disability who plans to enroll as a full time-student for the 2012-2013 school year. Incight is a non-profit that empowers people with disabilities to become contributing members of society. We accomplish this through several dynamic programs focused in the areas of: Education, Employment, Networking, and Independence.

Since 2004, Incight has awarded more than 540 scholarships between $500.00 and $2500.00. Of these students who have received our 4-year scholarship, we have been able to coordinate over 120 internships and generated full-time employment for 12 of those who graduated from college. Additionally, we have partnered with 25 different institutions who have agreed to match our scholarship dollar for dollar.

In addition to providing financial assistance, Incight proves to be a valuable resource to our scholarship recipients by providing continuous support during the transition from high school to college, in seeking accommodations and adjusting to the college environment, and transitioning into the employment sector following graduation.
